David Copperfield gets even creepier

David Copperfield

 
David Copperfield has always been pretty creepy, but recently his creep value has just increased by about a million points. Last week the FBI raided Copperfield’s Las Vegas warehouse, where they confiscated his computer hard drive and digital camera equipment. While the FBI did not disclose their reasons for the raid, coincidentally (or not) a Seattle woman is claiming that Copperfield raped her in the Bahamas.

So why go after his computer equipment? According to TMZ, the magician would select women from the audience during his show and bring them on stage. If he liked them, he would whisper code words to his assistants, who would then track the women and bring them backstage later. The women would be told that they might be asked to participate in shows if Copperfield toured their hometowns, and then their photographs were taken. Additionally, the women would be asked questions, like what their favorite men’s cologne is, or where their favorite vacation destinations were. Copperfield owned several islands in the Bahamas, which he purchased for $50 million.

Phew. That’s a lot of work just to get women. You’d think that if you were a multi millionaire you’d just schmooze enough to get women to sleep with you. Or maybe, just maybe, instead of all of that mysterious undercover work, Copperfield should get a therapist and a stylist, so he can stop being so creeptastic and step out into the real world as a guy that women would actually want to date, instead of the guy women date because they’re bribed to.
